If the dead dudes prints come up as a match for the homes burgled, it may bolster the white dumb-dumbs chances at a self-defense claim. On the other hand, if the black dude is clean, hillbillies are probably gonna burn.

The usual complaint is βI called the Sheriff and all they did is take a report.β No slam on the Law, I would guess securing a crime scene, collecting evidence, documenting everything etc takes considerable man hours they donβt have.
